Looking for a hand here...
I haven't posted in a while, and before the Senior FLamers hit me, I have already trolled the forums and tried the fixes in the Wikis...
I am having issuies with the BlueDot+Key mappings. Only a few seem affected, and the numbers work fine. I tried using a Reg Editor and changing the keys suggested with no changes.
I am also having a problem syncing with Vista, and can't seem to figure out how to fix it. Not a huge problem, because I have an XP machine too, but would like to sync with my laptop.
Th ekeyboard thing bugs the crap out of me. The ROM is great otherwise. Much more stable and alot faster than I expected.
Vista is a *****. Turn on "Enable advanced network functionality" and try again with syncing to vista.
As for the keyboard, that really has been answered about a thousand times. I believe there's even a cab file you can use. Read in the wiki about the ExtRom's on the cingular phones......
I was able to find an app in the wiki that fixed the problem... Wasnt really clear, and had to guess, but I found it....
The Vista Issuie still stands... The "Enable advanced network functionality" has been on the whole time...
remove the rndis driver from your device manager. Then, uninstall the windows mobile device center and update. Finally, connect the device to vista and run windows updates. Accept all updates. Should work.
Thanks for the reply!
I can't seem to find the rdnis in Device Manager, but I did uninstall and reinstalled WMDC with no change, it still wont aknowledge the phone. The windows XP machine in the other room works fine with activesync 4.5.
I was also curious about the supposed HTML email support in outlook... I have an exchange server, and synced all my email up, but the get HTML option in the menu is greyed out.... Whats up with that?

I'm gonna close this thread because each of the three issues you ask about here is discussed at length elsewhere.
The 8525 Keyboard issue is corrected using the WMXL 8525 Keyboard Fix.CAB file, I don't know how that is unclear.
The Windows Vista Issues are known and discussed at length, please ask your questions in one of those threads it will get you more and better help.
And Finally, the HTML e-mail via Activsync issue requires Exchange Server 2007. Again this is mentioned. discussed etc in several threads.
In closing, before you label anyone a "Senior Flamer" think about how much you enjoy being called a "Lazy Noobie". This is a community of volunteers, you get out of it exactly what you put into it.

I've been having problems with getting Windows Live Mail to sync all the time (yes, I have selected "sync when items arrive", but next time you look it has changed back to manual!).
I`ve been looking around in the registry and I think I've found where it's stored, could someone who's email is syncing correctly tell me what registry value they have at -
HKLM/Services/Windows Live/Sync/SyncType

Additional to that, does Windows Live have to be running all the time to sync as items arrive?
Thanks
Rob
I`ve wondered that too, I have tried both ways, but neither seem to work.
I'm having the same problem.
Just in case you are wondering, if you click on "As items arrive," and click on "done" and they you head back to it, it will NOT stick to it. That is normal, it does not stick to it.
Synctype = 1
Thanks for posting this question. I too have just started playing around with Windows Mobile Live.
I seem to think that 'as items arrive' does not stick. Also I have had success with WM Live getting messages when it was not running on my PPC so I am guessing it does NOT have to be running which is outstanding. Also I see that it will force a data connection instantiously upon a soft reset of the PPC.
All this tells me that WM Live is dug in deep into the ROM! Now the issue I seem to have with it.
I am betting that WM Live breaks the data connection invisibily. Here is why... It seems to work OK for a bit of time. Then even through the data connection shows connected NO applications on my PPC can access the internet. They all try but no data is ever returned. A soft reset and all is normal. I notice this about once a day and usually overnight.
Now I can't totally blame WM Live for this... I can blame my carrier, the internet in general, sun spots, etc... It is just so many variables to keep a working data connection going.
I changed HTCustom to keep my connection always on, so I'll see if that helps. Well this seemed to help. I did not have WM Live running and sent messages at different times to my WM Live email and got them all suprisingly.... I did not get the attachements pushed but I believe some others have posted that as an issue...
I've given up on it, it just seems to flakey to me.

It worked in black 2.0, but not in any of the latest roms (black 2.5, 3.0, LVSW, etc)
Anyone know what might have changed?
I upgraded to Schap's WM6 Pro 3.54b ROMs from my Vista, but after the upgrade and sync back the contact & appointment on the first time at night, the next day, the contacts are gone, and the phone no longer be sync to my computer.......
Now I try to back up using SPBackup, but then the contact's application couldn't even launch.....any expert can help solve the problem for me?
Big Thanks in advance......
Sound like you need to upgrade Active Sync
I had similar problem, make sure you didn't sync up as guest.
Otherwise, when it happened to let last time, i check my deleted files on Outlook on the computer and just simply restored my contact files etc.
I really don't know much else, hope what i mentioned helps. i know it's bit vague only because i did it trial by error, and i think i got most of my contacts back.
But i'm using XP and active sync 4.2 i think..
Guess different issues.
My problem seems to be different as there are two problems.
1. the Remote mobile adapter is connected, but the Vista's mobile center doesn't launch and can't recongzie the device.
2. The contact program on the device can't be launch......
Now I can't even re-swap the rom on the device, and it just stuck.... Right now I am using Excel mobile to check on my contacts, and that's stupid
Please help.........
Try deleting ur old parnetership from Vista mobile sync center. and hard resetting your phone again.
hope this helps
i just posted about this too
hard reset sorted out my device, i was geting unknown device and a driver issue for active sync and internet sharing
Whilst the phone is NOT connected through USB, ensure the following:
From START menu --> Programs --> ActiveSync --> Menu --> Options (Choose the connection you use in case more than one) --> Settings (under "If thre is a conflict" choose "Keep the item on my device").
Hope this will help.
I found the problem now
Hi all,
I now figure the issue as I can sync with another computer, and I think the problem is on my vista. However, After I uninstall the window mobile center, I can't reinstall it. seems after I update the driver, it doesn't recongize my device.
Can anyone tell me what are the files and registry that control the connection between my Hermes & my computer, and maybe if I can delete it all, and add it back, it will be ok.... that is just my guess, and I don't know how to do that,please help me.......Thanks
I need your help on this. I have tried to sync both messchle's 6.1 roms (4.01 touch and 4.0 vanilla) at home and at work. Everytime I sync for the 3rd time (1 home, 2 work and 3 back home again) I get this same error (86000107) on activesync.
Googling for the sollution ive tried all options (new outlook profile, new partnerships, hard reset, etc.) which would work for a while (1st and 2nd time) but would again hick up at the third time i would sync.
Today i found this thread on the Hermes XDA forum:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=368821
It appears to be the same problem and trouble in solving it. I am wondering if I am the only artemis user with this problem. Perhaps its a WM6.1 issue like was mentioned in their thread. Is Tom's rom any better so this last suggestion can be invalidated?
Will you help on this? Any info?
It would be a great pity if I would have to downgrade to 6.0...
Buggy Wm 6.1?????
BUMP!
75 views and not a single reply! If this problem is related tot WM6.1 i would have expected a little more response, since there are lots of new roms which come out lately.
Well, ive downgraded tot 6.0 anyway and all the syncproblems are solved again. So my best guess is that 6.1 is BUGGY if you want to sync your PPC on 2 pc's!
have been using the wm6.1 now for as long as it's out, bb5.0 from tom and the vanilla and touch versions from meschle now.
have used active sync on my home pc and on the laptop with out any problem.
USB to PC dashed out, cause dashed it always gave me probs active syncen a few time after eachother.
Twiggerdingo, face the same issue today at office. Fix it removing "Task", then "Contact" from the list of stuff to synchronize. Then, put them back and it works now like a charm.
Hope it helps.
Thank you for your fast replies on my post! Happy to see that you have everything working! I use tasks (approx 100) and appointments (700 total upcomming and last 2 weeks?) and depend a lot on it.
I saw the 'tasks' sollution as well and already tried it of course, but it made no difference. Sometimes it works, but then another day it did not. I do not have the time to solve it this way on a daily basis, and with me, the problem came back about 4 times a week (home and at work, on different occasions).
Hope the will be more info on this - and what causes it. Thanks again for your replies.

Re: active sync encountered a problem on the desktop Support Code 86000107
Was this post helpful ?
Although leaving TASK unchecked will temporary fix the problem, but that means you cannot sync TASK.
If you want to fix it properly, please follow these steps:
1: unplug usb cable if you are still connecting it with your WINDOWS MOBILE
2: Open MS Outlook (I m using 2007 as an example), go to File- > New -> Outlook Data File , and create a new PST file (what ever name/ location)
3: In outlook, Tools ->Account settings, then click Data Files tab, click the new PST file that you had just created, and set as default , then restart outlook
4: delete activesync partnership in both Windows Mobile and in your Desktop
5: Plug the WM to the USB port, and it should sync properly again.
6: restore the backup by using MS Outlook's Import and export function
It worked!
i have same problem, my solution:
first backup all data in phone (contacts, messages, calendar, ...)
check which category is problem (Contacts, Calendar, Task, ...) - in setting remove all checkboxes and let synchronize, then add one category and synchronize go on until you get error
uncheck problem category, delete all data in PC in problem category and let synchronize again then add category back - should be ok

Ive tried this as well and yes it worked (for a while). 2 syncs later the same thing reoccured. Strange thing is that pre 6.1 roms give me no problems whatsoever.

Just joining this thread.. yes it happens to me too...
and reoccurs...
I wondered:
Is PIM backup/restore the culprit?
I have a main Pc and a laptop which share info.
Any similarities?

Suggestion
Have you tried this?
Open registry (using something like task manager). Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\Version and change from ".1.0.0" to ".4.0.2"
Let me know if that works!

This registry edit don't work for me. I have same error for calender sync between outlook 2003 and outlook 2002. Other Task and note can sync without error.
I faced the same problem a few days ago. Im using HTC Prophet and using one of WM 6.1 builds.
86000107
I have the same problem on my kaiser.
However, mine only occurs after syncing at home AND at work. If I reset my device and resync with my home machine only, the problem goes away.
(having read the 1st post again, it may be exactly the same symptom - I will syncing again at work on Monday, and then back at home.
Why are people pointing to thier PCs as the problem when the common thing with this scenario is the wm device itself, and the fact that when I hard reset, it syncs ok again... maybe there's a problem with activesync on the WM device in this multi-sync situation?

Looks like my problem is that I need to sync with microsoft exchange directly at work. I will try syncing at home again tonight and then at work tomorrow to see if the problem has gone...
Right now I deleted partnership between PC and phone and erased all stuff (contacts, notes, calendar and tasks) in Outlook (there were some deplicities anyway so I had to clean it). I created new partnership. During sync it told me that it can not sync 3 notes in calendar so I erased them and did sync again. It finished properly and its working now.
Lets see if it will stay like that.

Nope, sync'd at home and got the same error - and my calendar won't sync now...
What now. If I delete the partnerships, I can sync to either machine ok, but not both...
I wonder if it's a 6.1 problem?
I am now in the situation where syncing at work is fine - I sync direct with microsoft exchange for contacts/calendar/email/tasks and have a work profile for the notes. Great.
Now I need to be able to sync contacts/calendar/tasks/notes at home... I'll keep trying...
It seems that this 86000107 is some sort of catch-all. No-one seems to know exactly what it's all about. Is there any logging I can switch on and look at to identify the error?
same here...
Hi!
i've got the same problem:
at home I'm running Vista Home Premium SP1, Office 2007 SP1 and MS SyncCenter 6.1
at work it's XP pro SP2, Office 2003 SP3 and ActiveSync 4.5
I can sync my Kaiser (Dutty's WM6) with each single of them without a problem, but not with both - as soon i connect it to the second machine an sync starts, it gives the error 86000107
no clue what to try next...
bye,
Martin
Had the same error, many people don't flash their roms twice. I decided to give it a shot:
1: Hard-Reset your device
2: At PIN connect device then flash Touch 4.01
3: At PIN flash again Touch 4.01
4: At PIN flash radio 03.08.90
This takes some time, but now my device runs flawlessly! Try it out...

Hello there, IF this works, it would be great! are u for sure to have synced it 3times (i mean at home-work-home) after reflashing twice?
Sure the error doesn't reappear?
I now have the same problem.
After reinstalling Office 2003 and active sync the problem is still there.
I hard resetted the ROM and installed a backup that didnt have this problem, and also this didnt resolve it.
I did see that the problem is with the Calander.
It is a strainge problem because it came out of nothing
Question about Win 6.1 Upgrade - Microsoft Exchange not working and Key Mapping
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I am having trouble getting my Microsoft Exchange email to work. The setting used to work before i upgraded. Any thoughts? If i am connected to Activsync, the mail works. If i disconnect activsync, mail wont transmit. Please help here.
Also, i have been reading all the posts on key mapping and i have tried copying the files and rebootting, etc.. but i am still getting some weird signs (Pound sign for @).
Thanks for the help.

Just refer back to post #1374 in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...74890&page=138
It should have the .cab you need to totally remap your keyboard (for US).
As far as Exchange...mine worked fine!
I just installed the certificates from my OWA server onto my Dash (as I have had to do from the beginning) and BAM, works great...
In fact, I think it may work better on the new ROM than the 6.0 I had before...
What specific error are you getting when trying to connect to Exchange?
I got it to work. The problem was my Activesync was blocking the emails from pushing. Once i unchecked Windows PC, it works fine.
Thanks for help.
Synch problem
OK ...
Finally posting on this problem - hoping others have experienced it and can help with a solution. I have a T-Mobile Dash WM6.1 (though this problem happened with WM 5 and 6), synching to a Vista Machine (Windows Mobile Device Center). This has happened on multiple machines/setups and different Dashes.
Every so often (maybe twice a week), when I synch - I get the dreaded little red-x in the corner of the "synch center" icon in the task bar, indicating a problem. Activesynch in my dash says Attention Required: "There has been a change made on your server that requires you to re-synchronize all items on your device ..."
Ugh. First - this takes a long time. Second - I lose my speed-dial and voice tags for my contacts. All a pain in the a**.
For months, I have been trying to figure out the rhyme or reason for this. It's happened with freshly booted PC and Dash. It's happened when nothing significant has occured (changes, disruptions) ... I've tried different bluetooth ports, wires (trying anything)
The closest thing I can think of is that it happens when I modify a contact, but I am grasping at straws.
Has anyone experienced this, and is there a solution?
Thanks!
Been there...
I've had that kind of problem when I tried to sync my outlook e-mails into my device, tried lots of things ("disable advanced USB connection" is one of the most famous suggestions) but what ultimately work for me was giving up on syncing my outlook e-mails and having my pop mail accounts setup on the device and downloading them every so often to keep it up to date with my outlook...
Anyways, try googleing for the error number or the phrase you get in the error box between "". But don't get your hopes too high tough: the problem is well documented and very spoken of but M$ doesn't seem to care much about it to come up with a solution (not even an official response, if my recollection is not mistaken).
Well, good luck and cheers.
Well, Synching outlook emails is the lowest of my priorities. Synching appointments, tasks and contacts are more important. Thanks anyway.
Thanks for your suggestion that I try to use google to find the error message. I never thought of that. Google. Are they a new startup?
; )
